CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS | SMALL! at fortyfivedownstairs

BY fortyfivedownstairs | 05-Aug-2018

fortyfivedownstairs is inviting (and accepting) submissions from everyone for our first ever community-sourced small works exhibition, SMALL! #SMALL45

Continuing our tradition of supporting Melbourne’s arts community with innovative and original programming, we’ll be opening up our large and small gallery spaces and filling them with anything and everything that comes our way.

The catch? Works must be no larger than 20 x 20cm including any frames, and must be able to be attached to the wall.

fortyfivedownstairs is committed to creating opportunities through artist-driven programming, and SMALL! allows us to open our space to a new cohort of artists and makers. Not an artist? Not a problem! We want to fill our gallery with the creative endeavours of a wide range of contributors. So, whether you’re an established artist experimenting with a new format, an emerging artist looking for exposure, or you just want to try your hand at something new, we’d love to see what you have to offer.

For more information and the submission form, visit fortyfivedownstairs.com
